Amazing we routinely let accused murderers out on bail but this lady is too dangerous for society.
And this is why we need the federal courts to prosecute financial crimes. No more BS. Put these people in jail and keep them there. Brooklynn just thought it would be worth it.

I mean this just gets even worse. She might not see the light of day ever again now.

Jailed San Antonio investment adviser Brooklynn Chandler Willy, arrested last month for allegedly obstructing a federal investigation into her business dealings, is facing 11 more criminal charges.

In a new indictment handed up Wednesday by a federal grand jury, Willy was charged with six counts of wire fraud, two counts of engaging in financial transactions involving assets obtained from illegal activities and one count of securities fraud.

The IRS agent testified about an elderly San Antonio couple who agreed to invest $500,000 with Ferrum using Willy's Chandler Capital Holdings as the agent to execute and deliver the contract. The two, who made the investment in 2021, are identified in the indictment as "Victim 1" and "Victim 2."

Willy deposited the couple's check with Chandler Capital but never sent any of the money to Ferrum, the agent said.

A married couple, identified as "Victims 3 and 4," were convinced by Willy to invest in a company called Cold Moon Holdings, the indictment says. Their investment was supposed to be for purchase of bad debt and "other business purposes." The couple invested more than $2 million, but it was never used to purchase bad debt or for business loans, the indictment says.

Instead, Willy used the couple's money to pay her associates, pay other purported investors and make "interest" payments to the pair, the indictment adds.

Willy convinced another individual, identified as "Victim 6," to invest $600,000 in "business opportunities," the indictment says. "Instead of being invested, Willy used this money for her benefit."

Man, stories like this are always so crazy to me. Kind of like Anna Delvey in a way.

On one hand, Brooklynn is undoubtedly a intelligent and hard working woman who created a business and grew it. Fraud aside, not just anyone could put together all that she did. She's got all of the right knowledge, personality, charisma, salesmanship and drive to pull it all off. That's an impressive person in that way.

But then you find out about all of the fraud and everything behind the scenes and it's so bizarre. What happened? Was everything she doing above board to begin with and then her lavish lifestyle caught up to her and she needed the money? Do one fraudulent thing that just leads to another and another? I mean just those 6 people posted above adds up to $3.1 Million. I can see getting addicted to that if you've been getting away with it.

Same goes for Anna Delvey. She was one hustler of a chick that used her intelligence to create a persona out of thin air. Yeah it was all based on a lie, but the stuff she pulled off before getting busted was amazing (I'm just going off of the "creating Anna Delvey thing from Netflix). No way I could have pulled any of the stuff either of these 2 girls did even if I was ok with lying and committing fraud.

So, they're lying scumbags and I'm glad they got caught. But part of me is impressed by how savvy they are.
